Is the ACPP worth getting from AppleStore for RM749 (edu price) or should wait around for some offers by resellers?

I just ordered my 13" MBP, yay! Expected to ship next week.
One Q on batteries since we're on it now. I usually use my laptop at home on my workstation so it's plugged in to AC power all the time. And I definitely would wanna extend my battery life as long as I can so... 1. Do I take out my battery as long as I'm plugged in? 2. If so, how many % should I leave it at when I take it out.. 100% or 50% or less? |

QUOTE(nimrod323 @ Jun 16 2010, 05:43 PM) mild question? come on, you said exactly this: sorry I haven't received my MBP yet I don't know how it looks like. >.< did you imply the battery? if yes make it clear and no, you cant look at the battery from my picture because you have to remove the back panel, all 10 screws to be exact, and the picture is still accurate in both assertions . A basic search in apple.com/mabookpro would have netted you all the info you need before you purchase anything. Make sure you know exactly what you are getting into first, since this not a RM1-2 item. Look, I'm not a tech person. All I've found from the website so far is on how to calibrate the battery, not whether it's removable or not. Maybe I didn't read between the lines. And since most laptops can have their batteries removed, I would assume it's a standard thing. So I'm just asking a question about it before I receive my laptop. To me, it's not the most important criteria so I would have ordered it anyway regardless of being able to remove battery or not. |

QUOTE(nimrod323 @ Jun 16 2010, 05:56 PM) look here, we dont expect you to be a techie, this is a very simple point, its just batteries. And the point im trying to make here is simple, make sure you go through everything that needs to be known about a product the good and the bad, and you dont have to read between the lines a little bit of attentiveness to this particular part in the spec listing says it all, Alright thanks for the info. I did see that but I didn't know what a built-in battery is.![]() you wouldnt ask this question if you have just paid a little attention to the easy to read material found here http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/specs-13inch.html Anyway, enough has been said. let's not turn this into a flamewar. |

Just got my 13" MBP today. Nothing wrong so far except that the aluminium body has static electricity when the AC is plugged in.. =/
